Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 60 Saving the World

"Well, cough..."

Hiroko Asami's eyes darted around, and she spoke evasively, her hands behind her back.

"The front door wasn't locked when I arrived..."

"Not locked?" Natsukawa looked at the first floor and then at Hiroko Asami.

How could he not lock the door before he made his way through?

There is no one else living here.

"Wait a minute," Xia Chuan glanced at the suitcases in the living room on the first floor, "You're not planning to move in, are you?"

Hiroko Asami couldn't avoid Natsukawa's gaze, so she tried to force an innocent smile.

"There's no other way. The Metropolitan Police Department is too crowded, so the higher-ups decided to temporarily transfer the support team to this base. Although it's in the suburbs, it's not far from the various districts of the city, making it even more convenient than the Metropolitan Police Department."

"Even so, there's no need to live in this one building, there are so many vacant villas."

Natsukawa glanced at Asami Hiroko quietly, then went downstairs and took a can of cold drink from the refrigerator.

To be honest, there's always a sense of unreality in the dungeon world. Although I have an identity and am not an unregistered person, I can clearly feel the world's rejection.

I felt much more at ease after returning to my own world.

Although the world is currently in chaos and the end of the world could come at any time.

"Speaking of which, Kaminari."

Hiroko Asami followed her downstairs.

"Did you fail again this time?"

I guess so.

Xia Chuan opened his phone to check the news.

Aside from a few missed calls from Hiroko Asami, there were only a handful of GG emails.

Interpersonal relationships are so simple that they are almost non-existent.

Natsukawa's gaze swept over Hiroko Asami, who was packing her luggage.

Perhaps these former teammates are the only people he can trust in this world.

After all, he was the one who stood up to the authorities for Ultraman back then.

However, he could only apologize, as the situation was unclear and he did not have the strength to be absolutely safe, so he could not easily expose himself.

Otherwise, it will not only bring no benefit, but will also drag your former teammates into danger.

After a pause, Xia Chuan lowered his head and began to browse the news.

Not long had passed since he began his journey, only about an hour, and the situation outside hadn't changed much.

The Amazon apartment incident appears to have been suppressed, with almost all online information wiped out, except for information on the Knights Forum.

"You still have a Knights Forum account?" Hiroko Asami asked in surprise.

"Murai's, I'll borrow it for a bit."

"Borrow? I can help you apply if you need it. This forum is also managed by the alliance."

"No need, that's too much trouble."

Xia Chuan put down his phone, turned around and bumped into Asami Hiroko, who was leaning close to him. He subconsciously sniffed the air.

"Uh, sorry," Hiroko Asami blushed, stiffened her neck, and looked away, coughing lightly as she explained, "I've been too busy lately and haven't had time to take a shower."

"again?"

"Ahem, I'm going to take a shower right away..."

"Wait a moment, Hiroko."

Natsukawa stopped Asami Hiroko, who looked hurriedly.

"I almost forgot to ask you something. Are there any other restrictions on the shuttle, such as usage time?"

"Of course there is," Hiroko Asami replied without hesitation. "Otherwise, why do you think there's a limit to the number of uses? Even without a cooldown period, the human body can't withstand continuous use... You're not going to keep switching back and forth, are you?"

"I only used it once or twice."

Natsukawa hesitated slightly, then looked at the quietly waiting Asami Hiroko and continued to ask.

"Also... is it possible that after the journey, I won't enter the Knight's Space, but rather a real world?"

"Huh?"

Hiroko Asami widened her eyes.

"I've never heard of that before... You didn't travel to another world, did you?"

"That's pretty much it." Xia Chuan nodded gently.

Appropriate intelligence exchange would not harm him; it could also explain why he had not acquired the Knight System.

"Really?" After confirming that Natsukawa wasn't joking, Asami Hiroko's expression became even stranger. "Kaminaga, you really are... special."

However, it's not impossible. After all, Ultraman fused with you before. Hmm, that should be the reason.

"The problem is that I have no idea how to get through the checkpoint, and my time there is very limited."

Xia Chuan crossed his arms in deep thought.

This time, I only stayed in the Kiva instance for less than two days.

Basically, there's not much they can do.

Surely he can't be expected to wipe out all the vampires in such a short time?

"Will we clear the game?" Hiroko Asami pondered as well. "Could it be about saving the world? Hmm, that seems unlikely. All I know is that everyone else passed the Knights' battle trials, and the slightly more special ones only survived for a while against monsters."

Xia Chuan's eyebrows twitched slightly.

To save the world?

It's not entirely impossible.

The test of combat... defeat the dungeon knight or eliminate a sufficiently powerful monster?

His situation was different from others, but he still had the experience of time travel.

"Buzz!"

Hiroko Asami was suddenly awakened by the sound of her phone vibrating.

"Kazumi, what's wrong? Yes, I know, I'll be right there."

With a serious expression, Hiroko Asami ended the call and turned to Natsukawa, saying, "Ozawa City, where that apartment was located, has been completely locked down. It's said that the infection has spread. I'll go check it out first."

"Be careful, Hiroko," Natsukawa warned finally. "Don't push yourself too hard. This world is much more dangerous than it was five years ago."

"So you can care about people too? Don't worry, I'll be careful."

Hiroko Asami smiled, quickly changed into high heels, and went out.

The villa fell silent again. Xia Chuan walked to the door and watched Asami Hiroko's departing figure, his brows furrowing slightly.

He had a feeling things would get complicated, and it turned out things had gone wrong so quickly.

What will become of this chaotic world in the end?

Can it save the world?

……

Ozawa City borders Suginami Ward, and there should be a lot of traffic there, but that night a giant barrier suddenly appeared, and the faintly glowing barrier could be seen from afar.

Hiroko Asami drove through the barrier under the watchful eyes of many drivers who were stopped, and solemnly entered a scene of the incident that was blocked by police cars. After a brief meeting with her partner Kazumi Takahashi, they entered a residential house together.

The scene had been the site of a battle, and the ground was in complete disarray.

Several forensic personnel were taking photos and samples inside. Someone took out a frozen human hand and a tightly wrapped human brain from the refrigerator. Upon seeing this, Hiroko Asami felt nauseous.

"Thank goodness I haven't had dinner yet. Has that man-eating bug been dealt with?"

"Yes, there happened to be a knight nearby at the time."

"knight?"

"It's supposedly a new category, and it behaves like a child. It even vomited after killing the monster."

"A newcomer?"

Hiroko Asami had no time to think about anything else; she just looked around the house with a slightly headache.

"Didn't they say the only ways to get infected are through saliva and blood? How did it get here? This place isn't exactly close to the apartment."

"In any case, the barrier cannot be lifted until the cause is found."

"Buzz!"

Over Ozawa City.

Xia Chuan grabbed Golem's leg and hooked his foot, his body transforming directly from Azure Dragon Kuuga to Rising Pegasus, a massive amount of sound flooding into his mind.

On the surface, the city seemed normal, and many people were unaware of the barrier's existence.

Most of the sounds are everyday life activities, conversations...

"Um?"

Suddenly, Xia Chuan caught a sound of rapid breathing.

Looking down at the ground, Xia Chuan saw a young man in a white shirt looking flustered.

"What exactly am I...?"

The young man, his fingers trembling, held the knight's belt in one hand and looked at his reflection in the glass with a shaky voice.

"What am I anyway? A monster or a Kamen Rider?"

"Hehe, human, you seem quite bewildered!"

A white-collar worker walked out around the corner with a strange laugh, and amidst the young man's puzzled gaze, he licked his lips, revealing a glass-like pattern.

Give me your life energy, and I won't feel lost anymore!

"Who are you……"

"Bang!"

The young man's eyes narrowed sharply as he dodged two white fangs that seemed to fall out of nowhere. After glancing at the shattered glass behind him, he quickly fastened his belt and turned the handle.

"Omega!"

"Amazon!!"

The young man roared amidst the fiery explosion, and as he stood up again, a large amount of intense heat erupted, and his form transformed into a highly aggressive green knight.

"Is it that knight from before? An Omega?"

Xia Chuan's gaze fell on the green knight who roared like a wild beast.

The body is green, with an orange breastplate, red compound eyes, and black armor with barbed blades on both arms and legs.

Both being bio-riders, the one below is more ferocious, like a carnivorous beast, while Kuuga is more like a human.

"Bang bang bang!"

The office worker on the ground also transformed into a bloodthirsty demon, with a rat-like head. He showed no fear in the face of the green knight's attack, wielding a gun in one hand and firing rapidly, easily sending the green knight flying.

"Hehe, this is my first time meeting a knight. Your life energy must be delicious, right? But it's really strange, you seem human but aren't human..."

"Whoosh!"

Xia Chuan was brought to the scene by Golem. After letting go and landing on the top of the building, he immediately pulled up the Rising Pegasus Crossbow.

The rat-shaped fanged vampire wasn't particularly powerful, but since it was the first time they'd encountered one in this world, they went straight for the kill.

"Um?"

The ground-based rat-shaped vampire was startled, but before it could even raise its head, it was pierced through by an air arrow and exploded with a loud bang.

"Bang--!"

Xia Chuan stared at the flames of the explosion without looking away, and his heart sank when he saw a dark figure rush out of the flames.

As expected, it's still the same.

Mutations will occur once a level exceeds 2, requiring a corresponding knight to eliminate them.

"Clang!"

Xia Chuan aimed at the black shadow and drew the Ascended Pegasus Crossbow again. This time, the rat-shaped fanged blood demon seemed to be on guard, its body swaying left and right. However, Xia Chuan didn't even need to lock on carefully. Several air arrows in succession blocked all evasion angles.

"what!"

The rat-shaped vampire was pierced by two arrows and exploded again after running only a few steps.

This time, there was no sign of resurrection; its aura was completely obliterated by the sealing energy.

"Twice..."

Xia Chuan put down the sublimated Pegasus Crossbow, and some indistinct numbers suddenly flashed through his mind.

My physical condition seems to have improved, but it's so slight that I can't even feel it.

but.

The fact that the Fang Vampire has appeared in this world is really not good news.

Xia Chuan quietly looked at the green knight Omega who was looking around on the ground, then turned around, got on Golem, and left the scene.

We must obtain the Kiva system as soon as possible.
